Abstract

This survey was conducted among those who have formerly left the rural areas for the city and returned back, unlike previous surveys that have focused on the rural to urban migration or the forms of migration. Thus this survey focuses on comparing the characteristics of migrants returning to the rural areas and those migrating to the urban areas, and was designed to accommodate the analysis of characteristics before migration, circumstances of migration, and the effects that adjustment to the city has on return migration. The questionnaire is composed of the following: rural life, family planning, rural problems, migration back to the rural area, participation in groups, residential environments, and child education. The「Survey on Urban-Rural Return Migration」 is composed of surveys of migrants to the city from Jeonnam(I) and Gyeongbuk areas, migrants to rural area, and rural natives.
